科普專欄–薯不揀單 - 深入淺出–腋下異味的來源

如果測量一個人的細胞數量，事實上只有25%是屬於人體細胞，其餘的75%均由細菌及真菌所據。2146Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡhNoojgLwxw
2146Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡOoHkSUvQ8K
細菌及真菌可以說是「無處不在」，它們不但寄宿於我們的皮膚外層，亦同時駐紮在我們身體內的腸道及各器官部位，與我們成呈共生關係。2146Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡmRxjkd9fvN
2146Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡg2hTT0AC9z
最近有科學家發表學術文章（Ref1)，講述位於汗腺附近的細菌就是腋下異味的其中一個元兇。2146Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJ7YDmY7DxO

（圖1）我們身體的肝腺大致分為兩種，外分泌汗腺(Eccrine Sweat Glands)及大汗腺2146Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFYKXDx0Pun
(Apocrine Sweat Glands)2146Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡFsVudqg2cc
2146Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡJUonyQeE1u
前者接近遍佈全身，不與毛髮連接。後者主要位於腋下、乳頭及私處部位，與毛髮連接。2146Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡO0OzLN1Jyj
2146Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡegroI3tP0y
外分泌汗腺的主要功能就是散發汗水幫助散熱，調節體溫。2146Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡVYPfyH29xJ
2146Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡokSwOr5TnD
而大汗腺的主要功能，到目前為止仍未能搞得清楚。2146Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡoacnGJfej6

（圖2）下列三點為文中所找出的異味散發機制。2146Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡBF1AZ5bWlT
2146Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡTKKjxb9dHi
1.大汗腺釋出無味物質Cys-Gly-3M3SH。2146Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ9DnbAlkhd8
2146Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡI34wQk7VFV
2.腋下某品種的葡萄球菌消化Cys-Gly-3M3SH。2146Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡjxyDTlNW9c
2146Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡifXlNAU1Be
3. 葡萄球菌消化過後，吐出帶有異味的3M3SH。2146Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ880yaknvL5
2146Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡGXHl8hCAnb
換句話說，腋下的異味就是由這些細菌引致而成的。2146Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡnoDm2OWeY7

（圖3）為作進一步的證實，科學家利用黃金葡萄球菌作對照實驗。2146Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡYYDfsUdZz6
2146Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡPuoViSHwhE
他們發現人葡萄球菌的近親黃金葡萄球菌並沒能夠將無味的Cys-Gly-3M3SH消化成為帶有異味的3M3SH。2146Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ28nwQV4ZeL
但是，當把人葡萄球菌其中一隻酵素轉移到黃金葡萄球菌後，無味的Cys-Gly-3M3SH便能夠被消化成為帶有異味的3M3SH，證實異味是由那隻酵素所致。2146Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡpe1ULcLP44
2146Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡId0LW9Fo5W
這隻酵素一直以來並沒有被前人發現，亦即是說，只要能夠研發出抑制那隻酵素的止汗劑的話，腋下的大部份異味亦能得以除去；2146Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ1xlnSTvwq1
2146Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡM0FXTJ7T4T
異味的產生，基本上是由硫醇（Thioalcohol)及脂肪酸(Fatty acid)而成。此文章所談及的機制純屬與硫醇的產生有關，沒有觸及脂肪酸那一方面。2146Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡC5G5zfm6PR
2146Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡiJFRbyLFlf
而臭狐是否由這細菌引起或有份參與，文中並沒有提及。2146Please respect copyright.ＰＥＮＡＮＡ3S26eEaDRy
